I received a set of astro A50 for Christmas but the USB jack was a little loose and there was a loose ball in my right ear cup. I brought it back and now have $270 base value (considering tax into he total to be around $300) to spend on a new one. I don't console game and I'm looking to start streaming over twitch. I've watched many Linus reviews but I thought I'd get the communities thought. Thanks very much for reading and thanks for helping.

The best headphone for a very good price, sound and comfort is for me easily the AKG K240 Studio: http://www.acquris.se/images/akg_k240.jpg

 

Bought them a couple of days ago and could not be happier. You will have to use a external mic thought, like the Modmic.

I have a G930 but I'm not super impressed with it. They sound great and the mic is quality too but the build of the headset is questionable (creaky earcups).

Another good option is the Vengeance 2100s

Desert Storm PC | Corsair 600T | ASUS Sabertooth 990FX AM3+ | AMD FX-8350 | MSI 7950 TFIII | 16GB Corsair Vengeance 1600 | Seasonic X650W I Samsung 840 series 500GB SSD

Mobile Devices I ASUS Zenbook UX31E I Nexus 7 (2013) I Nexus 5 32GB (red)

Audio Technika ATH-M50 or BeyerDynamic custom one Pro's with a mic you can sit on your desk like an audio technika at2020 (doesn't need to be anywhere near your mouth like some people have it, just sit it on your desk, as long as you don't have background noise)  Should cost around 250-300 in the end. If you want a normal gaming headset PC350/360's from sennheiser.

As I get older I get angrier more cynical, meaner. I feel some warning posts coming. I feel a ban coming. I was warned.
